Cloud Director Availability & Datastore Cluster (SDRS)

[mfleurisson]

Hello,
I'm looking for information on SDRS cluster support as a target for CDA replications.
And what are the best practices

Not a recommended approach, it is not supported AFAIK. May I know what is the use case?

Hello,

The use case is as follows: we have as a target for replications a storage policy with 8 volumes of 8TB in the backend. And we see that CDA is not correctly distributing the filling of volumes. And SDRS could be the solution...
And a priori SDRS is supported since version 4.4 because evacuating replicas from individual members of datastore clusters is supported !

Datastore Clustering is supported, but SDRS is not recommended. I would request you raise a support ticket to confirm this.
